Anesthesia machines are critical to surgical care—administering life-supporting gases and medications with precision. A malfunctioning anesthesia system is not just inconvenient—it’s life-threatening.
That’s why routine anesthesia machine inspection isn’t optional—it’s mandated by regulatory bodies and critical for patient safety. At MR Biomed Tech Services, we offer certified inspection, calibration, and preventive maintenance for anesthesia machines across Houston, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, Fort Worth, and throughout Texas.
Whether you oversee a surgical suite, manage a hospital, or run an ambulatory surgery center, this guide will help you understand how to protect patients and stay fully compliant with state and federal standards.
An anesthesia machine delivers a controlled mix of oxygen, nitrous oxide, and anesthetic agents during surgeries. A minor issue—like a leak, valve misalignment, or software glitch—can result in:
Patient injury or death
Surgical delays or cancellations
Non-compliance with Texas DSHS, NFPA 99, and CMS
Costly malpractice or equipment failure claims
Routine inspections minimize these risks by detecting potential issues before they become emergencies.
Anesthesia machines are life-critical equipment. Regular inspections are not just maintenance—they’re risk prevention.
At MR Biomed Tech Services, our certified biomedical technicians follow a thorough inspection protocol based on industry standards, manufacturer guidelines, and regulatory requirements. Each inspection includes:
Flowmeter calibration (Oâ‚‚, Nâ‚‚O, air)
Leak testing of the breathing circuit and gas supply
Pressure gauges and flow control valve functionality
Agent fill level, calibration, and output concentration accuracy
Mounting security and interlock systems
Ventilator function (bellows movement, settings accuracy)
Alarm systems, battery backup, and display panel checks
Check valves, exhaust valves, and scavenging system
Hypoxia prevention and low-pressure alarms
Oxygen flush system testing
Verification of AES-256 encryption in anesthesia record-keeping modules
Data security compliance for networked or cloud-connected machines (HIPAA focus)
Our team inspects all leading models, including GE Datex-Ohmeda, Dräger, Mindray, Penlon, and others.
Regulatory guidelines recommend the following inspection intervals:
Annually for low-to-moderate use facilities
Every 6 months for high-volume surgery centers
Post-repair, relocation, or software updates
Each inspection comes with a full report for audit readiness, insurer verification, and compliance tracking.
Modern anesthesia machines often include digital record-keeping and patient monitoring integrations. These systems store:
Vital signs during surgery
Gas delivery logs
Electronic anesthesia records
Without proper encryption, these files are vulnerable to HIPAA violations.
We verify that your machines are using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES-256) to ensure:
Encrypted storage of surgical patient data
Secure transmission to PACS or EHR systems
Compliance with HIPAA and hospital IT policies
In today’s healthcare environment, equipment safety goes beyond hardware—it includes digital security. At MR Biomed Tech Services, we help you meet both physical performance and data protection standards with confidence.
